Series 3 Exam

Hi,

Has anyone taken the Series 3, Commodities and Futures exam?

I took the Series 4, Options Principal exam today and passed with a 78. It was actually harder than I thought it would.

I previously passed the Series 7, 63, and 57.

How does the 3 stack up by comparison? I plan on taking this one next.

Thanks.
